  • Operational Highlights 2018
    NEWSLETTER PAPUA NEW GUINEA OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS 2018 JANUARY - DECEMBER 2018 The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) is an impartial, neutral and independent humanitarian organization that was founded in 1863 to help people affected by armed conflict or other violence. We have been working in Papua New Guinea (PNG) since 2007 as part of the regional delegation in the Pacific based in Suva, Fiji. Our mandate is to do everything we can to protect the dignity of people and relieve their suffering. We also seek to prevent hardship by promoting and strengthening humanitarian law and championing universal humanitarian principles. The PNG Red Cross Society (PNGRCS) is a close partner in our efforts. Here’s a snap shot of our activities in 2018: PROTECTING VULNERABLE PEOPLE The ICRC visits places of detention in correctional institutions and police lock-ups to monitor the living condition and treatment of detainees. Our reports and findings from the visits are treated as confidential and shared only with the authorities concerned and recommendations are implemented with their support. The ICRC also assists authorities with distribution of hygiene material, recreational items and medical equipment. Projects on water and sanitation are also implemented in many facilities. In 2018, we: • Visited 15 places of detention in areas of operations in PNG. • Provided recreational items, hygiene kits and blankets to police lock-ups and correctional institutions. • Facilitated correctional services officers to attend two training programmes abroad and helped a medical doctor participate in a health-in-detention training in Bangkok and Cambodia. • Facilitated first-aid training of correctional services staff in coordination with PNGRCS.

    INDEPENDENT STATE OF PAPUA NEW GUINEA Constitutional and Law Reform Commission THE REVIEW OF INTERGOVERNMENTAL FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS AND THE RESTRUCTURE OF DECENTRALIZED GOVERNMENT IN PNG W. Andrew Axline 1 Paper Prepared for Presentation at the Workshop Reforming Decentralisation and Sub- National Fiscal Policy in Papua New Guinea 28-30 April 2008 Workshop Location: Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea 1 University of Ottawa, Canada 2 In January 2008, the National Executive Council (NEC) established a Task Force on Government and Administration to undertake a series of governmental reforms, including the restructure of decen- tralized government in Papua New Guinea. The task force is to look into a broad range of proposals for amending the existing arrangements, with a view to improving the delivery of basic services to the people of PNG. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the incorporation of the recent reform of the financing arrangements into the broader process for addressing and resolving the major problems with the existing system of decentralized government. I. THE NEED FOR A COHERENT POLICY PROCESS The need for a major restructure of the existing arrangements is widely recognized. There is general consensus that the reforms implemented with the adoption of the 1995 Organic Law on Provincial and Local Level Government (OLPGLLG) did not result in the improvement of the previous arrange- ments, and led to additional problems. Since that time various proposals for amendment and im- provement of the system have been put forward, but no single policy process for restructure of the system as a whole has been initiated. The recently appointed task force aims to do that.
